Iran Press/ Africa: Mouhamed Reza Dehshiri, Iranian Ambassador to Senegal, points out that according to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) report, Iran is among the top 7 food-producing countries with the production of 23 agricultural products.
In an interview with Senegalian media, he added that Iran ranks first in fruit production in the Middle East and North Africa.
The agricultural sector contributes significantly to job creation and the country's non-oil exports, says Mouhamed Reza Dehshiri in La Tribune. “The biodiversity of Iran, due to the presence of various types of vegetation and climate, provided a very large capacity for the production of various types of agricultural products.
The existence of various geographical contexts with the possibility of cultivating and harvesting all kinds of agricultural products has placed Iran third in the world in the index of diversity of agricultural products. This has contributed to Iran's significant share in global and regional markets,” the Ambassador continues.
